Aligning your teeth to appear straighter or closing a gap between can provide a self-esteem. People who are self-conscious about the appearance of their teeth and gums often find themselves hesitant to smile in public, keeping their mouths closed in photos and even covering their mouths. All they want is to have perfect teeth and to deliver a perfect smile.

Those specialists from both orthodontists and cosmetic dentists can help you correct imperfections that keep you from your teeth's ideal appearance.

Cosmetic orthodontics is a branch of dentistry which deals with the correction of misaligned teeth for cosmetic reasons. This usually involves the wearing of a brace to help move the badly aligned teeth back into position.

Dental braces are devices used in orthodontics that align and straighten teeth and help position them with regard to a person's bite, while also aiming to improve dental health. Braces which are worn for medical reasons come under the category of structural, and when it comes to improving aesthetic appearance, it can be cosmetic.

Braces are available in different types based on their visibility, comfort, removable features, the scope of treatment and treatment time.
